Stuff Happens

Autumn yardwork and activities have kept me away from quilting and blogging. Regular exercise has also cut into my quilting time. So I was really looking forward to a one-woman sew-in Friday night. But it wasn't meant to be!

Did a few minutes of sewing, when there was an awful clunk! The needle snapped in half and the automatic plate converter broke right off. Technically, it was my own fault. But can't they invent a dummy-proof machine? To add insult to injury, my garage door is acting up (and down). I think its hyperactive.

So what's a girl to do? Meet a friend at the outlet mall, of course! Every Christmas I say "Next year, I'll start shopping sooner." Today I did it. Got a few gifts and whole bunch of ideas. :)

About Me

An intermediate quilter, I learned to sew, embroider, applique, knit and crochet from my Grandmother - sparking a life long interest. Most of my piecing and quilting is done by machine.
This blog is about quilting - with food, flora and fauna thrown in. Thanks for stopping by!
